Learning to Fly
Flight of Liberation: Unveiling the Soul's Journey
Lyrics
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Describing a distant, dark path or journey.
Stretched to the point of no turning back
Reaching a point of no return, a critical moment.
A flight of fancy on a wind swept field
Imaginary flight in an open, windy space.
Standing alone my sense reeled
Feeling isolated and overwhelmed.
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Being strongly captivated, possibly dangerously.
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Questioning the possibility of escaping a compelling force.
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Fascination with the circling sky, feeling entrapped.
Tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Expressing speechlessness and confusion, feeling out of place.
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Icy conditions affecting the flying apparatus.
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
Ignoring warnings, overconfidence in preparation.
No navigator to guide my way home
Lack of guidance or direction on the journey.
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
Feeling weightless, empty, and unresponsive.
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
A soul undergoing stress but determined to overcome.
Condition grounded but determined to try
Grounded but eager to attempt flight despite challenges.
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Continued fascination with the sky, repeating the struggle.
Tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Reiteration of feeling awkward and misfit on Earth.
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
In a precarious situation, relying on hope and chance.
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
A tarnished or imperfect image, a trail in the vast unknown.
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Observing one's own shadow in the sky.
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A fleeting glimpse, possibly of a challenging reality.
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
A dream unaffected by the approaching day.
Gould blow this soul right through the roof of the night
Potential for a profound transformation or breakthrough.
There's no sensation to compare with this
Emphasizing the uniqueness and intensity of the experience.
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
A blissful, suspended state of being.
Can't keep my mind from the circling sky
Continued preoccupation with the circling sky.
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Restating the feeling of being out of place on Earth.
